Enlarged LV
Hello, is anyone familiar as to how enlarged a LV with a measurement from echo of 6.94 cm ? I am able to find what would be considered normal range, but I cannot find any reference as to how high this would be considered. I am concerned that this would be considered dangerously high. I have been on coreg and accupril for going on 5 months now, and was hoping that my heart would have begun to reshape itself somewhat by now. My particular concern, among many, is the abnormal arrythmias which I believe this LV enlargement is causing. Shouldn't there be some improvement by now? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve
PLZ, if possible ask your DR. how is your Aortic valve working, how is your LVOT size?, if there is any calsification?
also let me ask you...Do you or somebody in your house smoke?
